Remove oil drain plug (1).

Drain and dispose of differential oil.

Open check plug (2) and oil filler plug (3).

Add differential oil up to lower edge of opening for check plug (2);
if necessary, refer to Technical Data for necessary fill quantity.

Installation:

Replace oil drain and oil filler plugs.
